§ Mr. O'DOHERTYasked the Chief Secretary whether he will state what is the cause of the delay of the sale to the tenants of the late Arthur P. Stewart's estate, situated in the county Donegal, it being directed by the will of the late A. P. Stewart that the estate should be sold find the money distributed to the several legatees at the earliest opportunity?
§ Mr. BIRRELLI understand that the Solicitors having carriage of the sale are in correspondence with the Congested Districts Board with a view to obtaining the consent of the Board, as required by Section 58 of the Irish Land Act, 1909, to the purchase of this property by the Estates Commissioners. The matter will be dealt with by the Board when they have been furnished with particulars in the prescribed form which will be issued as soon as the new regulations under Section 79 of the Irish Land Act, 1903, are made.
